The answer is 2 love.

Why?

*when your adding, subracting, multiplying and diving with mixed numbers away turn it into a improper to make your life easier*

1 3/4 as improper is 7/4 because 1*4 is 4 and 4+3 is 7 ALWAYS KEEP THE SAME DENOMINATOR

Now we solve:

*we change the sign of the division to multiplying and just multiply across*

7/4 * 7/8= 56/28 because 7*8 is 56 and 4*8 is 28

now we divide 56 by 28 and that’s how we get 2
